I CAN HEAR THE MOURNING DOVE

by James Bennett ; read by Barbara Rosenblat ‧ RELEASE DATE: Jan. 22, 1992

Amazon

James Bennett draws us into the frightening and painful world of mental illness through the mind and heart of teen-aged Grace, who is struggling to recover from her father's death and her own suicide attempt. Barbara Rosenblat's highly dramatic performance is ultimately unsatisfying. Grace's voice is annoyingly childish, rather than youthful, and shifts from actual to internal dialogue are difficult to follow. Vocalization of Luke, the single male character, is especially disappointing. The story loses its momentum and drive. Young adults will be fascinated by Grace's struggle but may lack the patience to hear her story through to the end.

    Narrator Christine Lakin gives a delightful performance of this sports romance about three up-and-coming female tennis athletes competing at Wimbledon and finding love. Indiana is fresh off her win at the French Open and is looking to find love with Jack. Penny is hoping to overcome an ankle injury in time to compete, with the support of the love of her life, Alex. Jasmine is the underdog hoping to make a name for herself. Lakin artfully distinguishes between each female heroine, creating the perfect variation of tone and nuance to convey their doubts, desires, and dreams.

    Lakin’s distinct and expressive character voices make it easy to fall in love with this romance.

      WHEN THE LEGENDS DIE

      by Hal rland ; read by Norman Dietz ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

      In this fascinating coming-of-age portrait, Thomas Black Bull's journey from the child, Bear's Brother, to the fearsome rodeo rider, Killer Tom Black, is painted with compassion and insight. Forced to learn the White Man's ways, Tom reaches adulthood consumed by rage. Read with great vigor by Norman Dietz, the recording bursts with the energy of rodeo circuit and transports the listener to the southwest. The accurate portrayal of Tom's Ute ancestry and way of life, the sorrow and frustration of losing his heritage, and his angry retaliation at the world make this an excellent listening choice for adults and teenagers. It would also be a wonderful addition to high school units on the Native American experience.
